C-TEC CA402 CAST Programmable Heat Detector

The C-TEC CA402 CAST Programmable Heat Detector is a state-of-the-art addressable device designed for use with C-TEC’s CAST-enabled fire alarm systems (such as the XFP and ZFP panels).

With configurable settings via CAST programming tools, the detector can be set to one of three heat detection modes:

• A1R (Rate-of-Rise with fixed 56°C threshold)

• A2 (Fixed threshold at 62°C – default setting)

• B (High threshold at 74°C)

This allows the CA402 to be tailored to specific risks in varied environments, including kitchens, boiler rooms, and plant areas. It includes an onboard short-circuit loop isolator for enhanced system integrity, 360° twin red LED indicators for visibility, and compatibility with the CA408 CAST Base for secure mounting and easy commissioning.

• Programmable heat sensing – Selectable Class A1R, A2, or B modes

• Fully CAST-compatible – Seamless operation with XFP and ZFP fire panels

• EN54-5, EN54-17, EN54-13 certified – Third-party approved by Intertek and Kiwa Telefication

• Built-in loop isolator – Automatically manages short-circuit isolation

• Low quiescent current – Just 370µA typical @ 40V DC

• Twin LED indicators – 8mm x 2mm ultra-bright red LEDs for 360° alarm visibility

• Wide voltage range – Operates from 22V to 40V DC

• Rugged and compact – UL94 V-2 rated polycarbonate housing, IP42 protection

• Tool-free installation – Mounts to CA408 CAST Base (locking and ID tag ready)
